Thanks a lot. thats what i need. I swear i checked the cpan faq :). I had tried bundling with cpanplus but when i went to install it couldn't find the bundle. The faq showed me how to deal with that. I'm gonna give it a try. I wonder how cpan will deal with modules i've already installed like modperl or vendor perl modules? We'll see.
